Flavor Friday: Better eat breakfast!

“Breakfast is the most important meal of the day”

My stomach kicks in pretty soon after I wake up, but with a busy work week, I don’t eat a full meal. I am grabbing a granola bar or yogurt, and eating in the car. I like to sleep as much as possible and give myself about 20 minutes to get ready. Breakfast sometimes even gets skipped altogether for many people. Unless you build in the time to eat/make food, it is impossible to start the day off with a bunch of energy. Since I am eating a small bite for my first meal, I tend to get hungry again around 10 (which I also fill with a snack) and then am starving by lunch.

Without eating breakfast, you are compensating the low energy with cups and cups of coffee – not the healthiest! I might try and bring some cereal or toast as well as yogurt to eat on the morning commute to work. It is critical for my stomach’s sanity and to keep me peppy until lunch 🙂

I couldn’t agree more. I love breakfast and it’s my biggest meal of the day. I always try my best to have something ready be it overnight oatmeal or pre-made breakfast I just to warm up the next day just to ensure I have a good meal. If I don’t eat a good breakfast it throws off my whole day!

I know I should eat breakfast, but when I wake up – I’m typically not hungry. Some mornings, the thought of food doesn’t even appeal to me until after 10 AM. Its a screwy way for my mind to treat my body, but I have a hard time getting myself to eat like a normal person…

Breakfast is such an important meal, but I never really paid it any attention until recent years. I was always rushing out of the house. I love breakfast FOOD though, so I love going to all-day breakfast places 😆
